For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6).
A Son is Given
Jesus Christ
Let the People Praise Thee
To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm or Song.
God be merciful unto us, and bless us; and cause his face to shine upon us; Selah.
That thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health among all nations.
Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.
O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Selah.
Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.
Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us.
God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him (Psalm 67).
I came across this psalm last week during my morning studies. I thought it was a great scripture to open the month of November.
Do you have a favorite praise or thanksgiving scripture?
Come Now
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
Isaiah 1:18 (KJV)
I am so thankful for the cleansing power of His blood!
Update
March has been a whirlwind. I finished a manuscript and turned it in to an editor! I lost a beloved uncle. Spent a week in Lynchburg and a day in Appomattox for my son’s wedding. And last, but not least, I gained the best daughter-in-love a mom could pray for!
It’s time for a break.
I want to sit in the sun and sink my toes in the sand while listening to birdsong in my backyard. Amid the stillness, I plan to talk with my Redeemer, work on the second book, and create scenes for the third and final installment of my upcoming series.
Until next time, enjoy the moments God has so graciously given. 🥰 Blessings, dear friend!
